On Friday May 27, Bayleys is selling by auction a 128-hectare beef-finishing and grazing unit on Onepuhi Road, Marton.
Bayleys Rangitikei agent Pete Stratton is marketing the property and points out the great location of Onepuhi Road.
Being just off State Highway 1 and only 7km east of Marton, this farm sits on two flat terraces overlooking the Rangitikei River and is very handy to Feilding, Wanganui and Palmerston North.
The soils on the main, bottom terrace consist of Ashhurst stoney sandy loam and Karapoti sandy loam.
They are described as free-draining and versatile soils suitable for intensive stock grazing, cereal, root and green fodder cropping or horticulture.
Stratton says the options are endless on this farm, ranging from dairying and intensive livestock finishing to cereals, maize and horticulture, making it one of the most versatile farms to be offered publicly in recent times.
The farm is run as a beef-finishing unit, grazing heifers and wintering dairy cows. It’s fenced to 40 main paddocks with a mixture of both conventional and electric fences and is serviced by a central, main lane which is metalled from a pit on the farm.
Farm improvements include a large workshop, eight-bay and three-bay hay barns and steel cattle yards with crush and scales.
Clean and reliable stock water sourced from an onfarm bore is reticulated to troughs throughout the farm.
Stratton says the offering of this productive, highly fertile finishing unit in two titles presents an exciting investment opportunity for farm buyers or property investors looking for an established, low-input farm in a popular district.
For more information contact Stratton on 027 484 7078. The property can be viewed by appointment or at www.bayleys.co.nz/3100036.
